🙁
past 10 days have been spent with illness
(and with not much relief in sight)

no blogging, no traveling, no office, no social life
(not much interesting stuff happening apart from a couple of friends visiting over)

just lots of reading and lots of dee
(and that’s the real thing, isn’t it)
🙂

hope to be back soon!

have started tweeting at http://twitter.com/delhidreams

hope you guys join me there

love ya

when i’d started net surfing, this site was one of my favourites. i used to be present in almost everyone’s inbox three or four times a week. dheere-dheere, slowly, the novelty wore off. also because i did not get as much replies as i would have loved to. it happens. so, no complaints. even i’ve been guilty of doing the same to some of my best friends. and to life itself. taking it for granted.

but only a few days ago, i used this site to spread cheer in a colleague’s day. it was her birthday and to see the response to my mail in her smile… it made my day too. she played my mail over and over again, and the best thing was i’d mailed her from a different id, so she was not sure who had sent her the mail 🙂

after two-three hours, when she finally got to know, she mailed me and profusely thanked for that wonderful card i’d sent her way. it certainly did brighten up her day.

yes, it was only a free e-card that i’d sent her. but it worked. and how! now i’m again hooked to the site. now once again, i’m ready to spread smiles in people’s lives. and no, am not being paid by these guys to spread the word 😉

you all know this, but do check the link here. and do gift a smile today.

i think the very best you can do after having done your best and lost… is to start again

the one thing, that has hurt me deeply is that they had placed a bomb in/near the children park. that, has somehow hurt me more than the actual blasts.

in the Hindu mythology, Brahma is the Generator of life. each one of His days corresponds to the birth, growth and flowering of existence. and on the other hand, when it’s His night, the existence ceases to exist.
the second god in the Hindu holy trinity is Vishnu (the Operator), who also graces my poems quite often 🙂 its a cycle that goes on and on for eons and eons, and comes to an end at the time of ‘maha pralay’ (the great deluge), when Shiva the Destroyer puts an end to it all.
anyways, Brahma’s day consists of many divisions. each one is made of many ‘yugas’. there are four yugas in Hindu time cycle, namely Sat yug (the age of truth), Dwapar yug, Treta yug and the Kal yug (literally meaning the age of instruments!) so either the industrial revolution was predicted a long time back or it has all been happening for quite some time now, again and again. your belief, totally 😉
